MS03-35: Flaw in Microsoft Word Could Enable Macros to Run Automatically

This problem could allow an attacker to run Word macros and bypass various protection mechanisms. All versions of Word and Microsoft Works are effected and
Microsoft considers this an "important" issue.

In order to execute a macro, the document has to be opened in Word. Alternative office suites like Open Office can be used. In general, it is not a good idea to open any attachment from an untrusted source. Digital signatures can be used to avoid 'From' spoofing.

The Wordperfect converter included in Microsoft Office, Frontpage, Publisher and Works is suceptible to a buffer overflow. The attacker can execute arbitrary code as the user opening the file. Again, do not open attachments you don't trust.
